Well, I suppose this is my user page... I joined WP in August 2005, and am a high school student in Harford County, Maryland.
[edit] Personal
I am an enthusiast of both theater and music. My theatrical preferences include Shakespeare, Samuel Beckett, and the musicals of Stephen Sondheim; my musical prefences run to Mozart, Bach, Bulat Okudzhava, the Beatles, and Pink Floyd. I have been playing the piano for eight years and the violin for six. I am a first-generation Russian immigrant (from four months of age) and Eastern Orthodox.
